Do you really want the thug in power to know you didn't vote for him?

That's exactly my point, it's a problem because there is a "thug in power". That's the problem, not open voting.

Even the nicest people become thugs when in power. Power corrupts.

Do you work with programming or something?

I don't know, in my experience most governments aren't run by "thugs" but YMMV.
